A THOROUGHBRED NIGHTRoBE.
BILE for ladies, so it is said, and either
the derby of the morning or high silk
hat. If he drives in the park he puts on
his covert coat and his leggingS of the
morning.
THE LATEST STYLE OF DRESS COATS.
1.-THE new dress coat?" said the most
English tailor on Broadway, whom the
reporter sought in search of infOrma-
mean that short cutaway of black dag
onai, with silken collar and two but
tOns?''
1.-The reporter said yes, that was what
he meant.
'There has been great amount of
talk over that coat" said the tailor, as
he patted piece of fine broadcloth
1T is not really a full dress coat, but
during the summer months, at such
places IS Bar Harbor, Newport and
Riehfeld, it took the place of the broad
cloth swallow-tail because it was cooler
and far more easy. AT the less swell
resorts, such as Saratoga and Long
Branch, these were not tolerated, and
that is the reason why E. Berry Wall
was refused admittance to the Grand
Union ball room. But as yet no such
coat is worn in town. We are making
dress coats trifle shorter, but not 9TH
erwiSe different. Some of the vests
have three, some four buttons. the
trousers are full and long, and the collar
and reverS are faced with lusterlesS silk
instead of satin. The full-dreSS collar
meets at the Adams apple and the tie :
is of null" u
1t was learned that a white null tie
purchased all ready in the bow was in
extremely bad form. Each person must
tie his own tie. and the chap who can
spoil dozen fresh ones before getting
satisfactory tie is considered the great
est swell. =
ovERCoATs AGAIN IN FASHION. \
The importing houses say that over-S
coats are to be revived. Last year
young men of fashion wore no oVercoatS
except at night. The Scotch ulster of
rough cloth and belted, and the EnglishS
storm-cOat, with its top-cape, are to DE
cloth of very thick quality, made short
as the covert coats, are for other days.
ODD DESIGNS IN JEWELRY.
The jewelry worn by the fashionable
man is not in full view. He wears no
watchchain of gold, but bit of black
silk braid, sometimes seal, but more
frequently drops his watch into his vest
| or hip pocket, as though it was snuff
box. Shirt-StudS are out of favor, but
| 'Scarf-pinS are still fashionable, and it is
| OH these bits of trinketry that the fash
ionable youth spends his taste and keen
Judgment. Anything from bulldogs
| head to dew-drop in diamonds is de-
signed in these gold trinkets. A horse
shoe, whip or something similar is for
driving. forget-me-n0ts in enamel and
diamonds, violetS, lovers knots and
such pretty designs for calls and even
| ing parties, and bars, dogs heads, ele-
plants tusks and similar pins for morn
| ing. E. Berry Wall has just 200 scarf
pins, and Carman Harriet, young man
who follows in his footsteps, has almost
as many.
Cuff-Iinks are as fancy and vari-
| Gus, the latest design having tiny min
iatures of beautiful women on each
link. Bracelets are worn by many, but
on the upper part of the arm, and are
therefore not visible.
"a man can dress fashionably on
$4,000 year. but few of them do it,"
was the comforting parting intelligence
of one of the fashionable Fifth avenue
haberdashers.
